Hey guys...I really do wish you the best of the season.

But no response, at all?

Was it in bad taste?

Let me say a few things first:
1) I have never passed out cold!
2) I have never even been falling down drunk!
3) I have been what may be termed "mildly intoxicated" on two occasions, once in my home and once while entertaining a valued client.
4) I have never been a risk to anyone except for the time I entertained my client and drove home in my vehicle. This was in the 70's before the breathalizer tests and the .08 limit. And while it was more or less "acceptable" at the time to drive in such a condition, it was not the appropriate thing to do.
5) I am what may be called a "social" drinker". I can drink it, but I do not need it. Often, I am the driver to take people home from parties.

So guys, I was only having fun. Just funning around.

If it was in bad taste, all I can say is that I have read stuff that was much, much worse on this site and people ran with it. That is they had fun with it.

And while I do not advocate heavy drinking, I do not condemn the ones who do it occasionally, for it is a personal choice.

My feelings though are different if the person is addicted to it, drives under the influence or where it affects relationships negatively.

But I really do wish you guys the best of the season. You are a great bunch!

Hi guys! See you are imbibing Christmas cheer!

Ruatha, I saw it and am in deep contemplation of the Zax Society response. This is a critical time in the development of the story and I must have all my faculties about me! So, I am going to give it my full and divided attention.

(Hic!)

Oops!

Indeed! and: Hear, Hear! I hope everyone has a good time celebrating your solstice festival of choice, or has a good time being a bitter non-celebraty-type-person.

Enjoy the holiday, the brisk weather, get blitzed, and pass out with a friend!
